Man and Animal in Severan Rome: The Literary Imagination of Claudius Aelianus - Greek Culture in the Roman World
Smith, Steven D. (Hofstra University, New York)
This book argues that Aelian's important work on animals, the De natura animalium, represents a sophisticated literary critique of Severan Rome. His fascination with animals reflects the cultural issues of his day: philosophy, religion, the exoticism of Egypt and India, sex, gender, and imperial politics.
